I just dropped by Gagosian Gallery NYC and became aware of some Damien Hirst paintings that show a beautiful interest in patterns and mirroring.  Inspired by butterflies and stained glass windows, his 2007 show “Superstition” exemplifies the vibrancy that can come when complex patterning combines with vivid color.  I wish I had seen it the show in person!
